CHAPTER XVI.
Prince Charlie.
It was the night porter who opened
the door at Kenrlth'a “Come in," and
he was holding a beautiful collie dog In
leash.
”1 beg pardon,” he said, restraining
the animal with difficulty, "but Prince

returned Trowbridge.
"Apparently none," the younger man
echoed. But be looked puxzled. He
was sure that, unknown to him. Trow
brldgo must have done something to
rouse the Prince's enmity, and he was
asking himself what It could have been
when the affair could have happened.
"One would think,” said Kenrlth,
smiling, "that the Prince expected Mr.
Trowbridge to attack you, Oxford, and
that ho was standing on guard, to pro
tect you at any cost. He has lust that
attitude.”
Trowbridge laughed again. "1 had
better try to show the faithful old chap
that his master and I are the beet of
friends,” said he. "Now, let us clink
our glasses together, and then drink,
to look after till morning.

would knock and ask the captain to see
what he could do to sooth the poor
bsast."
"That'S right, Millar,” said Captain
Oxford, who paid a porter to take care
of the dog at night, the only time In
the twenty-four hours when he was
•operated from his master, even In a
hotel. "Let him come to me.'
As he spoke, Oxford put down his

He held out his glass and Oxford
took up hts again, Kenrlth also lifting

bridge extended his hand toward Cap
tain Oxford, each holding his glass,
with a fierce growl tho collie leaped up
between the two men, and striking his
tawny head against his master's tum

with a sharp crash, Its contents spat'

dog's finely marked face and glossy
ruff. Both men mechanically drew back
to escape tho deluge, and Kenrlth was
surprised at the expression which for
an Instant dlsllgured Trowbridge's tea

It was natural thai he should bo
slightly startled, and perhaps vexed:
but a look of such rage and hatred
darkened his eyes for a second that
Kenrlth feared In his sudden anger he
would attempt to kill the Prince. Quick
ly as It had come, so quickly did the
strange expression fade, however, and
Kenrlth was half Inclined to think It
must have been a trick of light and

CHAPTER XVII.
Lady Lambart’s Day:
It had been a strange and terrible
day for Lady Lambart, one of the most
terrible of her llfo, which, of late years,
had not been lived all In sunshine.
In the first place, the morning had
been begun by a hideous shock. She
had hoped to wring a proposal for her
self from Kenrlth, and to have matters
settled between Hillary and Trowbridge
before the bursting of tho storm which
had been threatening so long. If she
had dared Bhe woulir have spoken dl
rectly with Kenrlth of her financial
troubles, but Instinctively she had * ”
that. If she seemed even to hint
help from him, though Bhe would
doubtless obtain all the assistance
needed, she would lose forever any hops
of him as a husband.
He had been brought up In a differ
ent world from hers, and the woman ‘
asked to marry him must be—or seem
to be—like Caesar's wife. Though he
admired her and was perhaps fasci
nated by her (or she hoped It), he was
not enough In love to forgive her for
the follies and almost criminal extrava
gances, which he would certainly find
out If she appealed to him for help In
this crisis.
Her one hope had been that she
might be already engaged to Kenrlth
before her troubles reached extreme
Issues. Then, when she could Inform
her creditors that she would soon bo
the wife of the well-known millionaire
from the North country, they would be
willing, even glad, to wait for their
money. If Kenrlth made awkward dls.
coverles before their marriage he would
be far too honorable, too old-fashioned
In his code of morality, to break hls
promise.
To Lady Lamb-irt's bitter disappoint
ment and chagrin, however, Kenrlth
had snld no word of love, and he nei
ther listened nor looked at her in the
old Interested way which hod given her
hope. Sl(e attributed the change large
ly to Elspeth .whom she—herlsew. an
arch-schemer—regarded ns a designing
little trickster, a kind of Becky Sharp:
and nothing would have given her more
delight than to hear that the young
stenographer had been killed or disfig
ured for life In the motor car accident.
As fate had not relieved her of the ene
my, she had done her best to assist des
tiny, and was enchanted with the news
that through her Elspeth Dean had lost
her place at Lochraln Castle Hydro.
For tho present, nevertheless, the girl
remained, a detested Incubus; and It
had been a hateful humiliation to Lady
I.nmljart that she and Hilary should
have received a warning from Elspeth.
It was a warning for which to bo
thankful; still It seemed to Lady Lam
bart that she would rather not have
had It at all than to have received It
through the girl.
It was a great relief that tho emer
gency had driven Hilary to capitulate
at “last; yet Lady Lambart was not
easy In her mind that Elspeth Dean
should be the bearer of her daughter’s
message to Trowbridge. Whether Els
peth had or had not acted In the affair
of Captain Oxford as she had been ac
cused of acting, was a detail of alight
Importance to Lady Lambart;, she fa
vored hls cause, and might never de
liver tho note to Trowbridge.
Matters being desperate at tho mo
ment, Lady Lambart had tacitly con
sented to let Elspeth take the letter,
rather than there should be any delay,
for even if Kenrlth failed, If the other
millionaire wero secured, everything
might yet be well. She had done her
best for him with Hilary, and she In
tended to have her reward.
When there came no disturbing news
from downstairs, Lady Lambart took It
for granted that Trowbridge had had
the note, and that he had kept hls
promise to save her and here whenever
the time of need might come.
The two ladles breakfasted In their
room, Instead of going down os usual;
but when an hour had passed In peace.
Lady Lambart felt thankfully certain
that the coast had been cleared.for her,
and was anxious that Hilary should
descend for a talk with Trowbridge.
But Hilary obstinately refused to
leave her room. "He must have hnd
my letter long ago,” she said,
might answer It. It is enough excuse
that I hava a headache. I’ve done
what you asked of me. I've consented
to make the sacrifice, and I shall be
miserable all the rest of my life; but
know you don't care for that, mother,
ve done enough for this morning.
.v’trfcfm’Sfsv.v
--rx-xrrMa^
mean to stay where I am and keep out
of Mr. Trowbridge's way."
"He will think It very strange, and
ho will have a right to be angry," said
Lady Lambart.
'•He knows I don’t love him," the girl
answered.
Still, you have promised to marry
the man now. You have no right to
avoid him."
•'Oh, mother. I must have one more
day to myself,” Hilary cried, her eyes
brimming with tears. "I've promised
myself to him, but In the mood I'm
In, If—If he should try to kiss me I
feel that I could strike him across the
face.”
Lady Lambart was startled. There
was a look In Hilary's eyes which told
her that the girl was In no state to be
coerced. 8he dared urge her no further,
for Trowbridge was certainly not a
patient man, and If Hilary should for
get herself and be rude to him he might
repent hls bargain. The best thing,
she thought, would be Jo go down and
sec the man, make op some pretty
message from Hilary, with apologies
for the headache, and also to talk of
the engagement as of a settled thing
tc every one whom she might meet.
She found Trowbridge In the ball, look
ing pale and anxious, but he bright
ened visibly on hearing from her that
Lady Hilary had definitely decided to
accept him. As It happened, while
Lady Lambart was engaged In giving
the news, the man with the dreaded
•'blue paper" arrived, Trowbridge was
called upon to keep hls promise, and
the flew, but not to her own room. Bhe
dared not wait In the hall, lest there
should be some dispute, and she should
called upon to see the "dreadful per-
whose expected coming had so
shaken her nerves. But hastily scrib
bling a line to Trowbridge. ”1 will go
to see Countess Radepolskot. Please
come to her sitting room, and touch
your right cheek If all Is well,” she
handed the sealed envelope to a waiter
with Instructions to give It to Mr.
rowbrldge os soon aa he should come
back.
